Today, I am really mindful of those affected by the hurricane. We’ve all seen the footage of devastation and heard the stories of personal devastation, so if you have the resources – on this Do Something Good Day – consider how you could support those in need. Whether it's organizing local relief efforts, offering your services to help rebuild, or donating to recovery initiatives, there are countless ways to make an impact.

Donations management is often referred to as the “Disaster Within a Disaster” as it takes a tremendous amount of resources to organize, categorize, store, and distribute physical goods. If you want to help those in western North Carolina and others impacted by #Helene, stick to cash donations to reputable organizations like the American Red Cross and The Salvation Army, or to local organizations supporting response and recovery efforts (h/t to Becky DePodwin, MSEM for this link): https://lnkd.in/gZrNFFXK This ensures the right resources get to those who need them most, while not pulling critical resources to sort through your lightly used clothes.

Communities across the Southeast have been devastated by Hurricane Helene’s impact. If you would like to help survivors on their path to recovery and rebuilding, it’s important to remember to do so responsibly. Leave the on-the-ground assistance and recovery planning to the trained professionals. Instead of going by yourself to an affected area, or collecting donations to deliver to families in need, we urge you to donate financially 💸 to recognized relief organizations or join an established group that can offer guidance on how to best support impacted communities. Your desire to help is commendable—let's work together to ensure our support makes the greatest impact to those in need. The best way to help is to offer your time, money, or voice to established, charitable organizations that have the experience to direct your given resources to reach survivors. Together, we can help affected communities in their path to rebuilding stronger.
